Vanessa Williams Instagram – Wednesday’s question… Tell us about your philanthropy journey and how you started and the issues you feel passionate about supporting. “I wish I had a ton of money to give to as many organizations and people as I could, but the time that I give to the people when asked is when I think it makes the most impact in my life. I have been so lucky to work with different organizations through contacts and friendships I have. Most recently I have been on the board with the Roundabout Theater Company, where we are working EDI and equity, diversity and inclusion committee which has been impactful. I am also one of the founding members of Black Theatre United, which supports inclusion and diversity and makes incredible changes. Our biggest accomplishment over the past three years has been the new deal on Broadway, which guarantees inclusion and diversity onstage and backstage and throughout the Broadway system.“ Talent: Vanessa Williams @vanessawilliamsofficial PhotoBook Editor-In-Chief: Alison Hernon @718blonde PhotoBook Creative Director Photographer Producer: Mike Ruiz @mikeruizone Fashion Stylist: Alison Hernon at Exclusive Artists @718blonde @exclusiveartists Hair: Chuck Amos @chuckielovehair Hair: Niko Weddle at Judy Casey using L’Oreal Matrix @nikoweddle @judycaseyinc Makeup: Lijha Stewart @lijhajade Makeup: Deney Adam @deney_adam Set Design: Jasin Cadic @jasincadic Fashion Market Assistant: Skylar Elizabeth @skylar.e Fashion Stylist Interns: Richelle Hodson, Yanesza Rowe @not_spelled_rochelle @yanesza Tearsheets by Daniel López, Art Director, PhotoBook Magazine @by_danalarcon Interview Questions by Renata Salazar, Contributor, PhotoBook Magazine @renatasalazzar Location: Love Studios NYC @lovestudiosnyc Designers: Moschino Toggle Jacket by Moschino @moschino Moschino Love Lock Pump by Moschino @mosc Shorts by Ramy Brook @ramybrook Ring by Laruicci @laruicci Waves Ring and Waves Earrings by Nicole Amato @nicoleamatonyc Tights by Falke @falke * * * * #photobookmagazine #vanessawilliams #legs #music #album #actress #uglybetty #mikeruizphotography #ootd #photooftheday #mellianmusic #newyork #missamerica #broadway #devilwearsprada
